This is more than a program; it is a transformative journey for aspiring filmmakers that showcases them globally.

By nurturing local talent and fostering a sustainable film ecosystem, the programme aims to drive economic growth, job creation, and cultural enrichment, positioning Nigeria as a powerhouse of creativity.

Film Lab Africa will provide participants with opportunities to showcase their work to both local and international audiences. Through premieres, tours, distribution avenues, and participation in esteemed film festivals, these emerging filmmakers will bring their productions to the world stage. The programme’s holistic approach ensures that participants are not only skilled storytellers but also adept entrepreneurs ready to navigate the complexities of the film industry.
